China’s tainted milk criminal was blood-typed, shot in public, in the head, and had is organs harvested, for a good human being – Do this on Wall Street and purge the U.S.A. of any mistaken Christian notions – business is business, and we should mean business – the Chinese sure as Hell do, and they are winning this struggle, hands down. P.S. They can populate an army bigger than the U.S.A. has citizens – period. so don’t get any military supremacy notion going in your G.I. Joe head either, we hardly have enough soldiers to cover our current very charitable commitments as it is, and outside of hiring Asians as mercenaries, we will be pulling back, far back, and very soon! We are in an economic battle with Asia and losing badly! We cannot afford charity of any sort – the best we can do is send our unemployed teachers to the poorest people of the world, and hope to show them a better way. The ball is now in Asia’s court, What are they going to do, that is the question to ask.

Unfortunately, gooferment (government that goofs up everything) is the meme that kills. It's not about money. It's about energizing the people who are starving to throw off the limiting beliefs and criminal gangs (aka government) that are killing them. Unfortunately, we in the USA are part of the problem. For example, we tolerate the UN. We should toss them. For example, we allow the government crooks who are killing their people to enjoy their ill gotten gains here. Declare them Persona Non Grata. For example, we don't from a foreign policy perspective MYOB. We need to stop picking winners and losers. We imho should free people to trade with people. We need to get governments out of the way. reinkefj's last blog post..RANT: Media bias in the "witch hunt"

4 % percent wouldn’t solve the problem. No amount of money would solve it .
Until the dictators and warlords of these poverty stricken areas are dealt with and removed, no progress can be made. Yay for all the good intentions. But results are what makes the world go round. The Warlords/Dictators take the aid that is given and keep it. That is what happens. We can never make this utopia everyone supposedly yearns for, because human nature will trump it every time.
Even if said warlord/dictators are removed somebody else is right around the corner to take their place, its that pesky human nature.

Why not leave well enough alone. We can’t be responsible for propping up most of an enormous continent out of these conditions. It’s sad, but guess what: there is no shortage of people on this Earth.

Survival of the fittest, isn’t that how we partially describe evolution?

Perhaps if the Africans played a greater role in the world (other than constantly killing their citizens and usurping their governments) they would be more appreciated by our fair country. If they can’t overcome these differences, rise up, and become the masters of their own will, they deserve their fate. Cause and effect.

Unfortunately, the US can’t babysit the entire planet. $30 billion needs to be used here in the United States to help our economy. If we aren’t around, then there will be no one to help the Africans.

Looking at the source article, it states that the United Nations would like to give that 30 billion dollars to improve agricultural programs in various poor regions of the world, in order that they may effectively feed themselves. I think everybody who is on any kind of world hunger committee knows that giving bags of rice is a temporary solution, and that better agriculture is the answer. Hopefully they will incorporate permaculture principles, and not pesticides and fertilizers.

Working with food banks and social service organizations in Detroit — one of, if not THE, poorest cities in the USA, I suggest that systematic change is the only REAL answer. Money is often a Band-aid, but it’s never the total answer, if it were, hunger, homelessness and a plethora of other ills would no longer exist. Think of all the money that has been thrown at these causes, yet the solution is hardly any closer. The adage “give a man a fish – teach a man to fish,” is the real truth. We need to invest our money in helping people help themselves — with dignity! Think of this the next time you make a donation – is the organization helping “their clients” become self sustaining, or are they simply taking care of them ensuring the agency will continue to be necessary. Non-profits are the fastest growing “business” in the U.S.
